If I read RFC 3986 correctly, this sounds like a bug. Reserved characters should not be decoded.

WebSocket uses KURL::path() to obtain path component of the given URL, and KURL::path() unescapes percent-encoded characters, so this issue occurs.

Chromium is not affected, because KURLGoogle::path() does not unescape.

So the real problem seems to exist in KURL::path(). Who does know KURL well?
